Forget clapping during movements or the shrill call of a mobile – now it’s cats who are disrupting classical concerts.

A live orchestral concert was disrupted in possibly the cutest way – after a stray cat wandered obliviously onto the stage.

Weaving carelessly between the musicians during a show in Istanbul, the fearless feline soon became the centre of attention.

Swiss artist Alain Roche did just that at dawn last Friday, as he gave a piano concert at a construction site in Munich, Germany.

What was more impressive was how he did it - he and his grand piano were hanging vertically in mid-air, suspended from a crane.

This recital marked Angelo Villani's return to public concertising after an enforced gap of 22 years, owing to a trapped nerve injury.

Mr Villani performs and practices wearing gloves in order to equalise touch response resulting from the nerve injury, which has responded positively to treatment in recent years.

In December 2014, a stocky old man gave a piano concert in Germany. This musical event saw 90-year old Menahem Pressler playing the piano, along with the Berlin Philharmornic Orchestra and with Sir Simon Rattle as the conductor. This New Year’s Eve concert was televised “live” around the world.

The youngest pianist in Russia does not get his feet to the piano pedals, but masterfully performs the most complex musical works.

When Elisha Mysin sits down at the piano and music begins to flow from under his fingers, it is hard to believe that he is five years old. He still does not reach his feet to the piano pedals, and the height of the chair for him has to be increased with a pillow.

If you have watched a piano concert or recital, you would have noticed that pianists on stage all sit with their right sides facing the audience. Why are the pianos placed in this position, at a right angle to the audience? Have you ever wondered who set this precedent? Who was the first performer to do this?
